I bet you’re probably getting sick of reading about the Naked Cowboy — hell, even I’m tired of writing about the one-man Times Square tourist attraction famous for strumming his acoustic guitar and poising for pictures in nothing but his trademark tighty-whities. But the Cowboy recently announced some wild plans that are hard to ignore — he has thrown his 10-gallon Stetson hat in the ring and will be running for Mayor of New York City. “Fact is, no one knows how to do more with less than yours truly –- and that’s the kind of thinking I plan on sharing with my fellow New Yorkers if you elect me,” he explains on his new website, NakedCowboyforMayor.com. “It’s exactly the kind of leadership this city needs during these challenging times.” He also unveiled a http://www.nakedcowboyformayor.com
platform that includes “plans to build a Times Square Wedding Chapel and establish a billion dollar wedding business that will rival Las Vegas” and a pro gay-marriage stance (“as an ordained minister he’d love to marry all citizens of NYC, not just the straight shooters”). No word yet from current emperor mayor Bloomie, who is expected to run for a third term.
